FINISH THE BOOKS BEFORE YOU DIE OF FAT. IF I CAN BE DEDICATED ENOUGH TO WRITE THIS SIMPLE SHITPOST EVERY CHANCE I GET FOR FREE YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO DO WHAT YOU ARE FUCKING PAID TO DO AND WRITE THE GOD DAMNED BOOKS. WHERE IS SHE WOLVES OF WINTERFELL? WHERE IS WINDS IF THERE'S ALREADY SO MANY PREVIEW CHAPTERS OUT ALREADY THAT HAVE BEEN OUT FOR FUCKING YEARS NOW, GRRM. YEARS! DO YOUR FUCKING JOB AND WRITE.

He doesn't have a snowball's chance in hell to finish the series and he knows it, that's why it is taking so long. He could shit out three more books and he'd still only be on book two of his grand outline. His mistake was to make the books have protagonists I think, he should just keep finding new characters and viewpoints, this would allow him to zap all over the place and not having to worry so much about time and stuff. Who cares what Jon or Stannis is up to? Just switch to another character years later who heard what happened to them or discover it.

Either that, or the exact opposite - stick to the characters he focused on in first three books and thoroughly plan their plotlines until the ending chapters before even starting AFFC. Seems like he vastly overestimated both his writing and storytelling capabilities, chose the most difficult road of further developing the protagonists he already had plus introducing bunch of new characters and locations. Of course it ended up as a huge mess impossible to finish in another two novels.

I think it still would be rather hard if he decided to just focus on the ones he has written about at length, you can't really do skips that way. The great thing about the mosaic gimmick is that you can use it to tell a larger story if used right without having to write about every single detail.

I'm trying to trick you into spilling the beans about these mystical shows you've been watching that are better than GoT. Mystery arguments are shit so if you don't think GoT is above average in this age of niggered jewish telenovellas then post something that is.

Right off the bat he's saying other things are worse as if that makes Game of Thrones any less shit, so we can disregard that first bit.

>GoT is still considerably above average

The average is dogshit, so why should we care?

>even if nowhere near as good as first three of four seasons

The first four seasons were also dogshit. The first season was mediocre but not terrible, but it was still just a vehicle for soft core porn and gore. If you like Game of Thrones, you're a dumb person, as simple as that. You're a trashy dipshit and you should consider suicide

"Average" is by definition average, not "dogshit". When it comes to television, the benchmark for average should be whether you regret the time you spent watching the show. It's ironic you tell someone to consider suicide for consuming mainstream show and not regretting the time he spent on it, and yet (You) spend your time shitposting on /tv/ imageboard when television and films are apparently below your patrician taste.

When you shitpost you are engaging in a creative activity where you have control. When you watch something, you are engaging in passive voyeurism. If you're going to subject yourself to whatever trash they project onto your television just because "you don't regret" the time you've wasted doing so, you deserve death. Right now, an asteroid should wipe out your worthless existence.

Is that how you cope with your miserable existence? Coming to GoT thread, saying show is dumb, posters here should kill themselves and expecting easy (You)s is your creative output for the day? Could be that you're just a social retard craving attention because you're not getting any in real life. Fuck off and end your suffering already, it's not going to get any better.

Yeah, but it didn't work out for obvious reasons. You can't just put the characters in stasis and half the time would be spent in flashbacks. The entire issue stems from having to follow up on the fan favorites instead of moving on with the bigger plot.

Why doesn't he just admit it's over and spend the remaining 5-10 years of his life enjoying himself while getting easy HBO cashing for consulting the GoT spin-offs? Makes no sense to just fuck with the readers and be remembered as a lazy liar.

If you're familiar with ASOIAF, how many fucking plotlines there are to finish, how much time it takes him to write just one novel that barely progresses the main plot, and how much time he spends fucking around on his blog, nerd cons or watching NFL, you can be 100% sure it's over. He should know better than anyone else.

half the shit you guise whine about is tv/movies. so i figured y'all watched em.

motivational growth is great btw. got into some trouble and didnt get wide release cuz the cuck incharge of the music sued them when they used their music in the trailers without permission or someshiet like that.

Yeah they were tacky and stood out like a sore thumb. Zero subtlety, it could’ve been one scene where Arya sees some kids play sword-fighting and one falls the other “the traitor Ned Stark” or something like that. Way subtler

Does anyone even like the the second Daario they'ce picked? The original one was perfect, a flamboyant and cocky mercenary making every pussy around him wet. The new one is random thirty-something hipster working as account manager in ad agency.

Speaking of Daario, is the story done with him or is he coming back in S8? There doesn't seem to be any reason to go back to the shitskin lands story-wise.

One of Railroad's strengths is also (another) of his profound liabilities - he's essentially a fat greasy superfan who did good and became a writer as opposed to 99% of fiction creators who excel at:

< not being obese

< not being "fans" in the traditional sense

< not being particularly social

George is all of these things and they spelled his undoing as his increased fame and success made him lapse into professional "Idea Guy" mode for HBO. The fatness thing is a common bullying point for us and Railroad and I like to harp on this in every GoT thread, but it really is unusual for writers and I find the association of /fit/ and /lit/ vs. /tv/ and /lit/ interesting as it effectively tracks those who make /lit/ vs those who consume /lit/

Same reason he backed the pozzing of the Hugo awards for the writefags. He's a nihilistic leftie boomer. He wont pass the books on to another capable author(s) for the same reason he and his ilk want to hand out awards to negroidals and gyno-americans… he doesn't want to be eclipsed by anyone younger. Promoting "diversity" is the Boomer's way of subconsciously preventing anyone from upstaging them the way they upstaged their parents & grandparents generation, so they burn it all on the way out so they'll be remember as great.

There better be a lot of wheat and landscape shots. Seriously though, if the final season manages to surprise me that would be amazing. Like a Neon Genesis Evangelion ending or a tweeest that changes everything.

In the book, Barristan spends time with Dany as a mysterious figure. The reader doesn't know this. He only reveals his true identity when he is convinced Dany is worthy. On the show they didn't do this because people would know based on the actor.

I think so. He got his name because he kept saying he was filtering people and alerting the mods. The mods got sick of it so they banned the threads until season six. Then we went unbanned the whole time until season seven until freecucks came and Bobby posted until we got banned again.

The GoT crowd is like the birds which fly south during the cold winters. Once the board is littered with fresh GoT memes of the new season the posters will be back. Right now there's nothing much here, not even Gurm has been up to much.

What of your second and third book, second one dealing with the conquest of Westeros by Daenerys and then the final one being about the white walkers? How are they coming along? You probably have to split them in several volumes too but what's your master plan?

I’ve been doing it for like three years when the guy who used to do it disappeared. He was in every /got/ thread on 4chan for years and one day just stopped. I don’t know if he got bored or died but I assumed the latter and took up his cause.

When Daenerys invades Westeros, her armies and forces will consist of:

>An army of obedient and disciplined eunuch soldiers who feel no pain

>A savage horde of 100,000 Dothraki screamers and bloodriders

>Tattooed slave freaks

>Brutal torturers who wear the masks of bronze beasts

>The scum of the East

>Exiles and traitors

>Sellsword companies without honour and brutal mercenaries

>Reaving Ironborn raiders and pirates and a fleet of savages who drown their enemies and rape their women

>Cultist extremists who follow a vicious God of Fire, who demands blood sacrifice in the form of burning innocents alive

>Enormous dragons- fire made flesh to burn cities to the ground and to melt the skin off men

When she arrives in Westeros, she won't be seen as a savior. One look at her army and any Westerosi are going to think a foreigner horde from hell has arrived. Her forces directly parallel the forces of Sauron in Lord of the Rings. An eastern menace.

The reason why she's Sauron is because GRRM always admitted he hated how Sauron was too one dimensional in his villainy, and that he wondered what Sauron's actual motivations were.

Dany will cause despicable carnage to Westeros, and because we've been following her for so long, some people will sympathise with her demented cause of destroying Westeros with hostile foreigner, because we've seen this villain's side of the story.

It's also worth noting that the name of this series is A Song of Ice and Fire- it's a reference to Robert Frost's poem, Fire and Ice.

So if you have ideas of this series ending in the good forces of fire against the evil forces of ice, you'll be wrong.

Robert Frost's poem is about death. Ice is a bitter cold death, and fire is a passionate explosive death. Dany and her dragons are as much of a threat to our story as the Others are.

Since your filename says you're a phoneposter, I wish to ask if you are the Margfag or not? He's the only prominent phoneposter here and he said to me that he was in /got/ threads all the time. If you're not him/you have no idea what I'm talking about, I'm warning you that others may have a keen eye like myself and will accuse you of being him during an argument.

That makes sense but the thing is that I think Gurm is too much of a pussywhipped hippy to actually do it that way. Although he's also too much of a fat procrastinating faggot to write anything, so that might be a moot point. The parallels are really neat nevertheless.

Uh, since there's still nothing to talk about, are there any theories about what could very well be the mystery boxes of Gurm? Like the deep ones and what's up with all the mysteriously superiorly built ruins everywhere? Is it science fantasy like some claim or is it just the old collapsed Rome chestnut that pretty much every fantasy writer uses?
